Overview of job

About Autonomous

Autonomous is an AI-native company founded in 2015, transforming from smart office products into a global AI hardware and product company.

We are building intelligent products that combine hardware, software, and AI to enhance how people work, create, and interact with technology in real life.

Our mission is to build AI-powered systems and products that enhance human productivity and creativity at scale.

About the Role

We are looking for an AI Engineer to help build, optimize, and deploy AI systems for real-world products. This role is ideal for someone strong in model development, inference optimization, and production deployment, with the ability to work across research, engineering, and product teams.

What You’ll Work On

You will work across Autonomous’ key AI product ecosystem, with a focus on:

1. Workspace AI: AI features for Autonomous’ workspace products, including desks, chairs, and WorkPods, making them more intelligent, adaptive, and personalized.

2. Lamp: A physical AI companion for your desk that sees, hears, remembers, and proactively checks in before you ask, powered by expressive motion and local AI for private, personal interactions.

3. Intern: The world’s first personal AI device, powered by OpenClaw, designed to handle tasks through simple. 

You will help build AI capabilities that turn user requests into real actions across work, research, and productivity workflows.

Responsibilities

• Develop, train, evaluate, and optimize AI/ML models for production use cases.
• Build and improve inference pipelines for computer vision, LLM, and multimodal AI systems.
• Optimize model performance, latency, and cost using techniques such as quantization, pruning, ONNX, TensorRT, or Triton Inference Server.
• Deploy AI models into production environments and monitor performance over time.
• Work with engineering teams to integrate AI models into applications, services, or device-side systems.
• Conduct experiments, benchmark models, and document technical findings clearly.
• Review code, improve model-serving workflows, and contribute to engineering best practices.
• Stay updated with new AI models, frameworks, and optimization techniques.

Why you’ll love working here

• You be you.  We deeply care about helping everyone at Autonomous work on what they love, freely express their ideas within the organization, and grow to to their true potential.
• You be a better you.  Most of the time, you’ll be working on cutting edge technologies.  You’ll be constantly learning and improving your knowledge as an engineer, researcher or scientist.
• You are your own boss.  There is very little hierarchy at Autonomous.  Decision making processes are transparent and open to vote. We welcome all different ways of thinking and trust the people we work with to do what they do best. There is no micromanagement here.
• You the inventor.  Most of the time, you’ll find yourself working on a problem that doesn’t have a solution - yet. That’s where you come in.
• Solve problems for the world, not just Vietnam. Most of the problems we’re solving are for the global audience of today, and of tomorrow.
